Atlas of Intelligence: How Generative AI Reshapes Knowledge and Creativity
Event Description
The Future Histories Studio welcomes Moontae Lee, LG AI Research.
Generative AI is transforming how we understand, create, and interact with information. Large Language Models (LLMS) comprehend contexts, answer non-trivial questions, and spark creative ideas. This talk introduces the evolution of these models, highlighting the most recent advancements in planning, reasoning, and evaluation. The talk also touches on the criticalconsiderations for both model developers and users, carefully addressing limitations of LLMs as well as ethical and societal implications. Finally, the talk provides ongoing directions in researchand production: from the rise of personalized AI agents to the future frontiers of AI.
Moontae Lee is the Director of the Superintelligence Lab at LG AI Research and an Assistant Professor of Information and Decision Sciences at the University of Illinois Chicago. His journey with Large Language Models began as a visiting scholar at Microsoft Research in 2019, continuously consulting the Deep Learning Group at Redmond until joining LG. He holds a PhD in Computer Science from Cornell, an MS from Stanford, and BS degrees in Computer Science, Mathematics, and Psychology from Sogang University. He has been an area chair for major AI conferences and earned recognition in Operations Research and Computational Social Science, including awards from INFORMS and Amazon.
His research interests include:
● Computational Creativity, Algorithmic Awareness
● Retrieval-Augmented Generation and Evaluation
● Code Generation, Reasoning, Planning
● Fine-grained Alignment from Human/AI Feedback in Generative AI
● Large Time-series Models, Diffusion/Consistency
● Machine Unlearning
● Ranking Monopoly, Voting Fairness
● AI Safety, Ethics, and Market Impacts
